MARKING TIME



In The Northern Hemisphere
Eight more days to Christmas


 Only four more days to Solstice:

 The balance point of dark and light, the shortest day and longest night.  Honored with light, the sun returns.
 

Today also marks the 'beginning of the seven-day celebration of Saturnalia.  Romans made and exchanged gifts, decorated their homes with holly and ropes of garland, and carried wreaths of evergreen branches to honor the god Saturn', but whatever you worship, may you be happy.
